Heidegger in his woods

[Philosophy | Link | Print]

Latour is tired of being accused of having forgotten Being, and offers this clever brush-off of Heidegger: "If, scorning empiricism, you opt out of the exact sciences, then the human sciences,, then traditional philosophy, then the sciences of language, and you hunker down in your forest - then you will indeed feel a tragic loss. But what is missing is you yourself, not the world!"
